I've had this brush for years, and it still performs well! Love the blending it does and I have small hooded eyes. No issues with bristles falling out and definitely recommend!

Soft bristles. Does a great job at applying and blending shadow in my crease. So happy I finally bought this brush!

I'm very happy with this brush. It does exactly what its supposed to. No issues with shedding so far. I am not a makeup artist by any means.

So disappointed, always used Mac brushes but the quality of two recent brushes I've purchased are awful. Ordered online and as soon as I opened it I knew it wasn't the same brush. It feels scratchy on the eyelid and does not deposit eyeshadow like my old Mac brush.Overall the whole brush Feels cheap and lighter definitely not the same quality!

I love this blending brush. I purchased my first set of MAC brushes back in March 2008, and I still have and use them to this day!! After 10 plus years I'm finally adding, not replacing, but adding a few more blending brushes today. I use the MAC Brush Cleaner on each of my brushes after every to every other use. They still look new. I've never had any issues with brush losing any hairs, no flaws when applying makeup or any other issues I have seen posted. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone!!

Do not spend your money on this! Worst brush ever - the fallout of brush strands is immense! You'll be left with a straggly brush that was never soft in the first place. Feels so cheap, terribly disappointed MAC!

Very disappointed in MAC. Once upon a time, everyone wanted to own a MAC brush. I love my original 224. This is garbage and a total ripoff. I will not be purchasing another brush from MAC unless they bring back their natural hair brushes.

Not happy with the new 224. Nothing like the older version. Not a blending more of a crease brush.
